I've seen the city lights from beyond the road
Chasing dreams in the places I don't know
Whatever road I take, just leave me back
To that older road where I left my tracks
They say you can't go back, but I know it's true
The things that really matter never change, they always renew
I'm headed back to the ground where I belong
Where the world slows down and I feel strong
Where the stars are bright and the nights are long
Back to the ground where my heart's been all along
Where the silver lies and the lights just stay
I'm coming home, back to the ground today
I've spent too many nights under a city sky
But all I want is to hear the crickets and fireflies
A rusty fence and a red-ball light
Is all I need to make
Every night is a new day

Everything right
They say the city's got a lot to offer
But it can't hold a candle to the things that truly matter
I'm headed back to the ground where I belong
Where the world slows down and I feel strong
Where the stars are bright and the nights are long
Back to the ground where my heart's been all along
Where the silver lies and the lights just stay
I'm coming home, back to the ground today
I'm coming home, back to the ground to this day
It's a slow ride, but I'm taking my time
Just a man and his truck and the peace I find
No more chaser shadows, no more running around
Just me and this old town, back to the ground
I'm headed back to the ground where I belong
Where the world slows down and I feel strong
Where the stars are bright and the nights are long

Back to the ground
Where my heart's been all along
Back to the ground
Where the simple life and the life still stay
I'm coming home
Back to the ground today
I'm coming home
Back to the ground today
